The American homeschooling system provides homeschooling homes with curriculum content that is a compilation of school education for homeschooling, primarily via the Internet. Umbrella Schooling is a public education system in which students who participate in the short-term class are certified as compatible with compulsory education credits. It may be often used for hands-on learning such as physical education training and observation other than subject learning.
As of 2018, the recognition of homeschooling as a public education system is widespread in Japan. However, it can be seen that the Dobson family, who are said to be the pioneers of homeschooling, and recently the Harding family of the above author, practice homeschooling outside the framework of this alternative education system. Rather, he says he feels sorry about the way homeschooling is implemented in this homeschooling system.
It can be seen that Japanese homeschooling practice families, which first adopted American homeschooling, have naturally shifted to the form of unschooling.
We hope that you will find a custom-made homeschool that matches the way of life and way of life of each family.

Part 1 Looking at lifestyle * Fostering children's trust and respect for their parents
As a parent who is so interested in success in your child's life that you read this book, you probably already realize that your child's respect and trust in himself is the cornerstone of their family life. But there is just as essential to harnessing the power of your love. It's about giving back love and respect to each other and keeping them with each other.

John Holt, a leading home school-related book, presents an interesting approach. Treat your child as if it were a foreign visitor. Foreign guests are eager to learn all the ways of doing things in your country (in this case the adult world), but to understand that, first of all, it's time to observe and participate. Is required. We can be angry, ridiculous, and numb to the ignorance of foreign guests, but when they become children, they often react negatively. Thing.
"When I was just starting homeschooling, I was like a sergeant in the worst nightmare," recalls three years after three children started homeschooling in Southern California. This is Carrie Somers. "Unless I worked on the textbook exactly at 8:00 am, I was anxious and screaming at the terrible end. About two months later, when everyone was feeling completely miserable, the middle child was in the morning. I noticed that I was crying. When I asked what happened, my daughter said, "Mom doesn't care what I think. What's important to her is that everything is right. It's just what you do. "
Carrie is now grateful for this revelation for her and the changes it has brought to her parent-child relationship. "I can't believe I thought it was more important to finish math than to recognize and respect children's emotions. When I tried to consider the needs and desires of children, the atmosphere of the whole family It's getting better. " Carrie happily reports: "There was also a bonus, because I discovered that the world wouldn't end if I didn't take the textbook at exactly eight o'clock."

Chapter 7 How Children Learn
"Don't give in to the temptation to classify your child into one of the intelligence groups, because it's natural to find a description that applies to your child in multiple directions. Choose from these descriptions that apply to your child. It combines the strengths and weaknesses of all intellects. That's the learning style that suits your child's personality. ”Tomas Armstrong (Learning Disability Expert: One day, it's fluffy. I quit that job because, from my personal experience, I was convinced that there were no learning disabilities in the world. Armstrong saw not obstacles, but "clearly in school education. It was a unique learning style that was not understood. "
"Children who liven up in one-on-one relationships can be at a loss when they join a group of two or more, whether it's a social or educational setting. The same is true. "-Ann Larson Fisher (experienced teacher and author of homeschooling)
Everyone has
Know developmental characteristics
Knowing the development and growth process of the brain related to children is
It's not about getting a way or skill to manage a child.
To know children, and by extension, to know humans.
It has an antenna that catches what the child (person) in front of you is trying to convey through words and attitudes, which is useful for increasing its sensitivity.
If you touch the keywords "cognition" or "individual learning style", you may associate it with "developmental disability" and not move on.
However, everyone has learned "my own way of remembering" and "my own way of studying" without being too conscious of it. You must have devised a unique way to understand and acquire things outside of your weaknesses and strengths.
Before developmental disabilities, each person has cognitive traits, and the path to cognition and understanding is "easy to understand" and "difficult to understand."
Knowing this should give you a better understanding of what can help you grow in terms of the individuality of your child's personality.
《Learning approach suitable for “individuality” that is also effective in child-rearing and educational settings》
http://www.nichinoken.co.jp/…/multiple_intellige…/mi/mi.html
Professor Howard Gardner, a professor at Harvard University's Graduate School of Education and a world authority on psychology, advocates learning methods that are not bound by the general rules of classroom lectures and training. This is a learning approach that suits "individuality."
Professor Howard disputed the traditional IQ test, arguing that a person has multiple "intelligence MIs (MIs)". According to MI theory, human beings usually live by exercising "eight abilities". Among these, there are areas of particular excellence and areas of specialty, and it is said that a person can greatly develop his or her talents by identifying eight abilities and learning with an approach that suits his or her individuality.
For example, in the case of children, if you support their growth according to their individuality, specialty, and interests, they can expand their potential while having fun. For children who like to count, they can deepen their understanding of quantity and numbers through cooking, and for children who have strong compassion for friends, they can develop their ability to form relationships by playing with friends. is.
When a person is stimulated by curiosity, he / she learns lively, and the experience gained in mind and body is deeply engraved. It is the successful experience of learning by oneself that fosters continuity and motivates us to take the next step.
